To keep track of available packages the ''pacman'' package manager uses database files which is downloaded and kept on your computer. You need to create such a database file for your repo. It is crucial that your database filename is the same as your repo name. If your repo is named '''online-repo''' then your database name must be '''online-repo.db.tar.gz'''.

Use the command <code>repo-add</code> to build a database file

Line 87:

~/online-repo/x86_64 $ repo-add online-repo.db.tar.gz *.pkg.tar.*

~/online-repo/x86_64 $ ls

kickshaw-0.5-2-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz online-repo.db online-repo.db.tar.gz online-repo.files online-repo.files.tar.gz

kickshaw-0.5-2-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst online-repo.db online-repo.db.tar.gz online-repo.files online-repo.files.tar.gz

Every time you change the content of your online repository, the database must be rebuild! Otherwise, ''buildiso'' will complain later about missing packages in your online repository.
